(ver. 1)
Andrew Durant
Intro
 C7   G/B      C    G    C    G 

 C7                            G/B              
There a light across the river and it's                     
 Am making me dream G 
               Em                                            
It's the last of the riverboats and it's 
 D getting up steam C 

 C7                     G/B                                                   Am              G 
I can see it through the willows, I can hear it round the bend
The birds fly  Em up and they're saying  A 
 D It won't be back again   C 
 C And the river boat G  knows just where   D 
 G the river goes
 C And som B eone  Am throws  B me a line  C   C#m 
 D                    C                                   G          C   G 
It's the last of the river boats going home

 C             G/B          
I dreamed I took a journey
   Am                         G                 Em 
From Echuca to the lake
                  A 
Drinkin on the promenade deck
               D                  C 
Till I couldn't keep awake
 C             G/B             Am                    G 
I woke up with a vision from a different time
 Em                                           D                       C 
When the road was a river and the riverboat was mine

 D             G                              D                G 
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
 C   G/B   Am   G/B   C   
And someone throws me a line
 D                          G                  D           G 
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
 C      G/B     Am   G/B        C   C#m 
And the water shows me a sign
                D            C                    G 
It's the last of the riverboats going home

 C   G   C   G  C  G   Am  C  D  G 

 C               G/B                C              G 
Meanwhile we're living, lives we all know
               E                                     D 
Paying our tax and breaking our backs 
                           C 
With nothing left to show
 C            G/B                D                    G 
Thinking of a future, of a day that'll come for sure
 Em                  A                     D 
We'll take the riverboat and we'll fire it up once more


 D             G                               D                G 
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
 C   G/B   Am      D     C 
And someone throws me a line
 D                    G                    D           G 
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
 C      G/B     Am         G/B         C   C#m 
And the water shows me a sign
 D                   G 
It's the last of the riverboats going home

 C                          G                                         D 
And the Riverboat knows just where the river goes
goes
 C   G/B   Am      D     C 
And someone throws me a line
 D                      G                      D           G 
The steam whistle moans, the paddle wheel groans
 C      G/B     Am         G/B         C   C#m  
And the water shows me a sign
